Which is the better degree!?!?!

[csutbut]

Hey! Im an undergrad and deciding between Exercise Science or Fitness Specialist majors.. which would be better for wanting to be a personal trainer?! Has anyone had experience with either of these?!

I dont think there is a difference between the two. why dont you contact the people in charge of the programs and ask them what the difference is and then make your decision. It sounds like fitness specialist might be more apt for personal training but its best to check to make sure. There is definitely a lot that both have in common. Also ask yourself where you might see yourself in 5 years. Do you think you might want to go on and get a MS or greater degree? think about that before you decide.
